Portland Cars & Coffee M Car Adventure
As the Portland Cars and Coffee event ramps up at its new home, I figure it's best to start a thread to coordinate pre-meets, and track who is in town! Even though your engines lack individual throttle bodies, the cars all share the collection of tens, if no hundreds of M badges. Let's all gather in advance for a quick chance to make introductions & showoff, followed by a collective roll into the C&C event. Here are the details for the first meet, tomorrow, 16 May:
Portland Cars & Coffee Pre-Meet!! 08:00 @ Rose City Poker North lot (near Chevron) 25425 SW 95th Ave Wilsonville, OR 97070 Quick meet & greet, etc. 08:10 Depart to Portland Cars & Coffee at Portland Cars & Coffee at World of Speed Museum 27490 SW 95th Ave Wilsonville, OR 97070 Cruise in together, make friends, binge on caffeine, depart. While the times are a bit earlier than seasons past, the event has grown substantially--often making it a hassle to even park. The event gates open promptly at 08:00, so no point in arriving to the destination prior to then. Last edited by sterile stork; 05-15-2015 at 06:15 PM.. |

Missed this, completely fell off my radar. Shame because it isn't far from the house. Will definitely plan and try to make the next one. Lots I still need to learn on this car. 1st BMW. Hope everyone had a good time inspite of the drizzle.

The first weekend was a resounding success--we have a bit of logistics to sort out, however the turnout...just a new benchmark altogether. Some photos for the visual pleasure can be found here:
@twinturbobmw @braydenjoel @supercarphotographer As an organization, we're looking forwarding to refining some of the processes but look forward to you all joining in the future! Only 2 F8X's this weekend |

Saturday is approaching quickly! As it is Memorial Day weekend Portland Cars & Coffee is inviting past and present members of the armed services to park their vehicles in the featured lot at this weekend's event. Who's planning to attend?

Shoot, I live just down the street from World of Speed. Sorry I missed the event. Still need to get over there for a tour. The kids keep asking. Anyway, when is the next event?

I regularly work at the event and unfortunately cannot be at the pre-meet location (0.8 miles north of WoS Museum) so a volunteer to lead the pack would be greatly appreciated! |

Ok, just saw the 8am pre-meet time and the 8:10 depart time. But again, wondering if WOS is going to be the new regular spot. Thanks again.

People are tending to meet in the location itself--the new venue enables people arriving at their convenience without the fear of, "needing to be there before XX:XX to obtain parking." For the past couple months I had been at every event (I'm part of the organizing staff.) I'm on a bit of a hiatus at the moment as I'm travelling quite a bit for work again.
